Prices start from just £110 and for £190, the Racing Car Experience demonstrates the exhilaration of what it is like to handle a single-seater racing car or a Porsche Cayman.

For the ultimate day out, the triple Caterham & Racing Car Driving Experience at £225 offers the thrill of getting behind the wheel of three different cars!

Whichever package you pick, the driver will get full briefing and instruction before taking control of the wheel.

There is even a New Starter Driving Experience for 13 to 17-year-olds. Ask Lewis Hamilton – you’re never too young to get started!

Accompanied by a fully-qualified ARDS Instructor around the 2.1 mile track, teenagers will learn the basic car control skills in a Mini Cooper, which will help them to get started when they are old enough for a driving licence.
